Back to readings

Read together

Once upon a time, there was a wolf named Wally who loved to howl. But one day, before he could howl, he realized his goal was to become the best howler in the forest. He practiced every day, but always got distracted by the delicious smell of food. One day, he was caught begging for scraps from the other animals and they told him it was more important to focus on his goal. Wally learned his lesson and decided to eat less so he could concentrate on his howling. Finally, he became the best howler in the forest and all the animals asked for his favor to howl at their parties. The end.
